Alright, so I've decided to start a blog. It's been on my procrastinating mind forever, and I finally found the motivation I needed. This miracle happened thanks to Mariana (follow her @ http://www.featuringtallulah.blogspot.com). I was bbm-ing her (just in case, it's IMing through Blackberry messenger) and telling her about my brand new lifestyle. Yes, I have a new lifestyle and I intend to keep it for as long as I am alive. It's called DIETING. Mmm, haven't we all tried it at least twice in our lives? Yes. But have we kept it? Think. It's always a resolution, always an I'm-gonna-start-on-Monday excuse for more food, always an unstable position. For years and years I've struggled with weight, and the problem was, well, I never thought I had a problem! I was a binge eater, and there was no end to the barrel. I've been thin, and that was when I was 16 years old. I used to weigh 120lbs. I'm 21 one now, and let's just say I've gained an embarrassing amount. I plan on giving away the big number when I reach my goal: -30lbs. (HINT)
See, I was at the supermarket a couple of weeks ago weighing (coincidence) some fruits when the weigh guy very nicely asked, "When's the baby due?" THAT was my cue. I freaked, I panicked, and I almost cried. I'm no walrus, but I'm no skinny bitch either. Either way, I knew it was time to take immediate action. So I went to see my nutritionist that same day (whom I hadn't seen in almost 5 years) and it turns out she has a fitness center where she uses ultrasound, heat & pressure, and NASA used machine to help lose fat. That along with the diet (1300 calories per day) and boxing (yes, I box! except I wouldn't dare fight anyone) should do the trick. It's been two weeks and tomorrow I have my first appointment post-start. I'm gonna be weighed and measured. I will definitely post results. I'm counting on at least -5lbs. Whatever happens, I'm hitting the gym right after!
BTW, it's been two weeks since I've had a drop of alcohol. I'm a heavy drinker. This is noooot an easy thing for me. I'm used to drinking 2 or 3 nights a week. And it's not just 2 or 3 drinks. It goes up to 7 if it's liquor and beer, and up to a bottle of wine if it's wine. As I told a friend, "I feel like I'm in rehab. Uncomfortably healthy."
Anyways, that's it. That's my story right now.
